The only problem I see with Hillary's e-mail situation is that what has been turned over so far clearly is not complete. It will take subpoenas and a fair amount of time to finally get everything handed over. Well, you know, everything that hasn't been destroyed already, of course.

I destroy my emails by submerging my laptop in battery acid.

I don't know if they have the right to subpoena them, as she isn't legally compelled to share them. Either way, I'd rather she turned nothing over out of principal than picking and choosing what she turned over.
I'm surprised that nobody bothered to mention the Federal Records Act at all. Since it requires agencies (and heads of agencies) to maintain all records of government business in a public database unless deemed classified for security purposes.
Which she shouldn't have the ability to claim (she may have security clearance, but not the ability to create secret or above documents).

Yeah, the whole cherry picking thing is going to cause her more troubles than anything else. I know people like to say that Benghazi isn't a scandal, but when 50,000 emails get handed over by Hillary and not even one mentions Benghazi, it's going to look suspicious and it's going to continue to haunt her campaign. A perceived scandal can be just as damaging as a real one, so regardless of where one stands on the issue it must be acknowledged as a problem.
I'll give you guys all night to read over the law. I expect people to admit that she did break it, and give various reasons why she deserves a pass for something anybody with a (R) next to their name would have been convicted already.

In regards to perception versus reality, perception is often more damaging than reality. Whether what is perceived is the truth, fabrication of the truth (truth based lies), outright slander/libel, defamation of character, or other, as it goes through the grapevine, facts, truths, and lies become distorted and bigger than what actually happened.
I don't how anyone can defend what she did. I really don't. If you find yourself defending the illegal actions of a politician because you've been told she is your next President then it's probably time to look inward at wtf is wrong with yourself and what they have done to you.

That's NARA, which SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDES confidential communique. It also states that the head of any agency can alter their reporting policies without notifying.
She didn't break any law by not disclosing the emails. Does 2016 already have all you reactionaries so freaked out?

Is that a joke? You don't think the Secretary of State has the ability to create top secret documents? Pretty much all outgoing correspondence from the State Dept. is going to be classified. The public is not entitled to see the conversations between foreign leaders. This is exactly why no one is mentioning the Federal Records Act.

It's not mentioned whether her personal emails ever included communication about it and they haven't disclosed what extent her official email was used, either. But, yes, all these perceived scandals have had their intended result; making anyone associated with Obama look bad to uneducated and uninformed people.
Ahh there's that elistist attitude wafting their own farts with a smile while they are wrong time and time again.
Yes, you have still failed to show she broke a law. Feel free to post the actual law that she broke at anytime. The law that KN posted was wrong, so, try again.
Textbook projection... If you're so much smarter and more informed that everyone else, why does the opposite of your proclamations almost always happen?

Backread a few pages already you re-re. Try and keep up. kbye
Still waiting for that citation from Aman, as I said, he can never provide it. He falsely claims to have done so, but it hasn't happened.
Isn't that just like Vic expecting to have life handed to him, too lazy to even click back 5 pages. I'm sorry brah I will not be posting it again. Get your first exercise in a decade and click back 5 pages.
Right on cue, falsely claims to have done it, says he won't do it again, so he remains holding absolutely nothing. Classic Aman. Still no evidence presented by anyone that Hillary broke any laws. Of course, it isn't going to happen, considering if evidence existed, it would have been presented already by some Republican in Congress.

And he's resorting to pathetic baiting and playing the victim in record time.

Thats all he ever does, its like he follows the same script everyday.
